What this lesson shows
A $24 goal, saving $4 a week: 6 weeks. Write the plan, then sort choices into earning, spending, saving, borrowing, and giving.
The worked example
The lesson works this one step by step: save $24 at $4 a week. Then your kid tries one like it on paper.
The steps
- Count up a week at a time
- Check: weeks × each week = goal
- Earn, spend, save, borrow, give
Helping at home
Read each goal aloud. Your kid counts up by the amount saved each week until reaching the goal, then checks with multiplication. Then sort the choice together.
If your kid gets stuck
Count up a week at a time.
